The Outsider A Perfect Circle
The Outsider (Resident Renholder Remix)- By A Perfect Circle
Tabbed by Seismatters
This is that song from Resident Evil: Afterlife (y'know, the good one) that's
played at the end when Sienna Guillory and her army of generic, black-clad
soldiers go to mess up Mila Jovovich's face or something (I dunno,
I haven't seen the new one) and also in the fight with Wesker,
which I will always maintain as the moment where the movies beat the games.
This was a mother to try and tab and chord,
but I tried my best and I reckon I got a good result so enjoy.
Here's a link to the YouTube video that I'll use for reference:

Tuned: Standard E
Intro: Okay this is difficult to explain, but the intro goes like so:
First Part (0:05-0:28):
Start with G#sus4, but don't play the bottom string.
Then you play the bottom string separately.
Then you switch to G#sus4addA then C#m/G#.
If tabbed, it would look like this:
e|-X-X-X-4-|-X-X-X-4-|-X-X-X-4-|-4-5-5-4-| B|-4-4-4-X-|-4-4-4-X-|-4-4-4-X-|-4-4-4-5-| G|-6-6-6-X-|-6-6-6-X-|-6-6-6-X-|-6-6-6-6-| D|-6-6-6-X-|-6-6-6-X-|-6-6-6-X-|-6-6-6-6-| A|-4-4-4-X-|-4-4-4-X-|-4-4-4-X-|-4-4-4-4-| E|-4-4-4-X-|-4-4-4-X-|-4-4-4-X-|-4-4-4-4-|
Second Part (0:28-0:53):
Simple. Just hammer a C#m barre chord.
Third Part (0:53-1:28):
The same as the first part, except with some minor changes.
Start with G#sus4, but don't play the bottom string.
Then you play the bottom string separately.
Then repeat the above step, except instead of G#sus4 play G#m11.
Then you switch to B9/G# then G#m11#5.
If tabbed, it would look like this:
e|-X-X-X-4-|-X-X-X-4-|-X-X-X-4-|-5-5-4-4| B|-4-4-4-X-|-4-4-4-X-|-4-4-4-X-|-4-4-5-5| G|-6-6-6-X-|-6-6-6-X-|-4-4-4-X-|-4-4-4-4| D|-6-6-6-X-|-6-6-6-X-|-4-4-4-X-|-4-4-4-4| A|-4-4-4-X-|-4-4-4-X-|-4-4-4-X-|-4-4-4-4| E|-4-4-4-X-|-4-4-4-X-|-4-4-4-X-|-4-4-4-4|
For that final part (1:26-1:28) that leads into the first verse, use the
chords A5/E (It's like Em but down a string) and Asus4.
First Verse (1:28-2:07):
This first half isn't actually chords. It's single notes on the A string.
Above each part will be the fret number.
[4] Help me if you can
It's just that this[2] is
0 2
Not the way I'm wired
So could you please,[4]
Help me understand why
You've given [2]in to all these
0 2
Reckless dark desires
Your
This next part, however, is chords that cover three strings. Each string has
to be picked in the correct order (Middle, Top, Bottom).
[C#m/G#] Lying to yourself again
[G#sus4] Suicidal imbecile
Ano5 G#sus4
You're pounding on a fault line
[C#m/G#] What'll it take to get it [G#sus4]through to you precious
Ano5 G#sus 4
Why would I, why would I, why would I
wanna watch you?
If tabbed, it would look like this:
C#m/G# G#sus4 Ano5 G#sus4
e|-X-X-X-|-X-X-X-|-X-X-0-|-X-X-X-| B|-X-X-5-|-X-X-4-|-2-X-X-|-X-X-4-| G|-6-X-X-|-6-X-X-|-X-2-X-|-6-X-X-| D|-X-6-X-|-X-6-X-|-X-X-X-|-X-6-X-| A|-X-X-X-|-X-X-X-|-X-X-X-|-X-X-X-| E|-X-X-X-|-X-X-X-|-X-X-X-|-X-X-X-|
Chorus (2:07-2:24):
Once again, the first half is simply single notes from the A string.
[4] Disconnect and [2]self destruct one
0 7 4
Bullet at a time
2 0 7
What's your rush now, everyone will have his day to die
The second half of that (where it goes all instrumental) is just:
G#sus4 F#sus4 A5/E Bsus4 x2
Second Verse (2:58-3:40):
That weird riff at the start is:
e|-X-X-X-X-X-X-X-| / = slide up B|-X-X-X-X-X-X-X-| G|-X-X-X-X-X-X-X-| D|-X-X-X-X-X-X-X-| A|-3-3-4-3-4-3-/7| E|-X-X-X-X-X-X-X-|
The part with vocals is with the following chords (the weird spacing
between words is to try and show cues):
[Asus4] [G#sus4] [Asus4] [G#sus4]
Medicat---ed, dra---ma queen,
[Asus4]pic---[G#sus4]ture [Bsus4]perfect, [Asus4]numb bel[Csus4]ligerence,
[Asus4] [G#sus4] [Asus4] [G#sus4] [Asus4] [G#sus4] [Bsus4] [Asus4]
Narcissis---tic, dra---ma queen, cra---ving fame and all it's
[Csus4]decadence
[G#sus4]Lying through your teeth again
[F#sus4] Suicidal imbecile, well [A5/E]think about it
You're pounding on a fault [F#sus4]line
What'll it take to get it [G#sus4]through to you precious
[F#sus4] Over this, why do you wanna
Throw it [A5/E]away like this
Such a mess, [F#sus4]well I don't wanna watch you
Second Chorus (3:41-3:57):
Now there are chords.
[G#sus4] Disconnect and [F#sus4]self destruct one
[A5/E]Bullet [F#sus4]at [Bsus4]a [G#sus4]time[F#sus4] [G#sus4]
[F#sus4]What's [G#sus4] your [Bsus4]rush [G#sus4]now, every[C#sus4]one will [F#m]have his [Am]day to [G#sus4]die
Bridge (4:05-5:06):
All it takes are these chords, even throughout the vocals.
[G#sus4] [Asus4] [G#sus4]
The little transition part between the instrumental and the vocals is:
[G#sus4] [Bsus4] [Asus4] [Csus4]
Then, once the vocals start (i.e. Lying to my face again...), go back to:
[G#sus4] [Asus4] [G#sus4]
At the part where he starts screaming, play instead:
[G#sus4] [F#m] [G#m] [G#sus4]
Final Chorus (5:07-5:19):
This is the part where he only sings 'disconnect and self destruct'.
[Bsus4] [F#m] [G#m]
When he plays the scream, go back to:
[G#sus4] [F#m] [G#m]
Final Part (5:20-5:27):
Hammer on F#m then slide to G#m
